Peel by blanching in boiling water for 30 seconds, the skin slips right off. Halve, remove pit, cut into spears. Steam 3-5 minutes if the flesh is firm. Ripe peaches are soft enough without cooking.
Peeled soft cubes or wedges. Very ripe peaches need no cooking, the texture is naturally BLW-friendly.
Raw ripe wedges, smoothies, grilled peaches with butter and cinnamon, or sliced with a drizzle of honey (honey is safe after 12 months).
Garden notes
Excellent BLW food, the natural curve of a peach half is easy for babies to grip and gnaw. Remove pit and any sharp pit fragments carefully. Clingstone varieties have firmer flesh; freestone varieties release the pit more easily. Most require two compatible varieties for good pollination.
